Why Emotional Regulation is important for those with ADHD:

Emotional regulation is a key skill for anyone, but for individuals with ADHD, it can feel especially challenging. ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, often involves difficulties with focus, impulse control, and, importantly, managing emotions. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by intense emotions—whether it’s frustration, anxiety, or anger—you’re not alone. These emotions can be triggered by everyday situations or internal thoughts, and they can sometimes feel like they’re out of your control.

In this module, we dive into the important connection between ADHD and emotional regulation. Understanding how your mind works is the first step towards taking control of your emotions and transforming your responses. With the right strategies, you can learn to manage these emotions more effectively, improving your overall well-being and quality of life.

Module Outline:

Here’s what to expect to gain from completion of this module:

  • Self-Awareness: You’ll assess your emotional regulation abilities to identify areas for improvement.
